If a group disagrees with an establishments political stance or the way they do business, then boycott it, that's our right as consumers, but blocking access to markets, locations or licensing is over the top and, I believe, illegal.

Personally, I don't care if the guy is a homo-phobe or not, it doesn't influence my decision to have a chicken sandwich either way. I try to keep politics out of my food as much as possible, .


... not trying to poke at anybody, just sayin' I think it's all much ado over nothing.
I agree Slo, that keeping out CFA legally is not feasible. You might not be happy about an adult bookstore moving in next door, but legally you can't do anything about it.

The fact is that CFA did bring politics into their business, and as with everything in this country, it will be polarizing. Here's a perception survey:
